Traditional Wedding

Contributed by geordie on Tuesday, 30th June 2009 @ 01:37:07 AM in AEST
Topic: EmotionalPoetry



Traditional Wedding
How intricate the spells that bind
When rings exchanged by Groom and Bride
A holy mist, a purifying cloud, a silence
Within the congregational crowd

Within this envelope of people just two
Hands holding hands, vows; Oh! So true
Tears suppressed by sheer joy of elation
As love is declared to the entire nation

A lasting moment locked in time
Shared by the world as two souls entwine
Two bands of gold with invisible tie
Meaning so much, to you and to I

No one can predict the destiny of
This young couple declaring their love
The sands of time stretching far away
Yet fully aware of the part they’ll play

Growing closer and closer as time
Passes on, two old bands of gold
Still shining and strong, the spells
That were cast that day long a go

Will carry us through
Sunshine, hailstorms and snow
In the turbulence of life where ever we be
Those two gold rings still bind you and me.


Ray Johnson

I love this poem. I love the way this poem describes the bond of marriage. It made me reminisce of my own.
